jesus i cant believe it yak yak yak

[LeChuck]

There's just no closing down in midfield. What would we do for a Robbie Savage type in there?

I got flamed for saying central midfield was the biggest issue over the transfer window. We'd be a stronger team with Givet centre back, Olsson left back and a £6 million midfield destroyer. Dann won't keep us up but a leader in midfield might have done.

I wish Olsson would come on for Giver, he keeps giving away possession and doesnt support Hoilett at all.

Yakubu looks sharp and hungry though.

[HemelRover]

matter of time

Til we equalise? Truly you are nostradamus!

[BPF]

I'm happy we signed Petrovic

[Rovermatt]

That is a lovely finish from the Nigerian pensioner.

[TugaysMarlboro]

Hoillets defensive cover is non existence. No wonder Givet is being torn a new one.

[Smithyster]

Where did that come from??

Great finish!

[BuckyRover]

We have a striker!

[Amo]

That's how you do it!

[Tom]

Booing stops now though wonder why?

Superb finish.

[imy9]

Why is Givet getting no protection? Pathetic tactics, this is going to be a 3 or a 4...

Oops feed the Yak and he scores!

Still going to lose IF we don't help Givet.

[Balwer]

Feed the Yak!

Hope Roberts was watching, should include that in his next video...

[Tim Southampton Rover]

Roberts would never have scored that goal. Excellent finish from a proven goalscorer.

[LeChuck]

What a deft finish that was, great technique and awareness.

I hope that'll stop comparisons to Roberts, he'd never come up with such an inventive goal. Keep the Yak fit and he's a top quality striker.

[s_simpson_9]

Samba overhead!

[slough_rover]

if you say so. Wish Emerton was still here personally.

We agree on something.

[DannyKeg]

Just shows what double helpings of pies and treacle pudding will do for you.

[Dan]

Rochina's delivery has been excellent so far, lovely flat driven balls.

[HemelRover]

Great challenge by Scott Dann on Sagna. Good old fashioned tackle.

[Tim Southampton Rover]

I wish Olsson would come on for Giver, he keeps giving away possession and doesnt support Hoilett at all.

Hoilett is not helping Givet at all, which is why Givet is trying too hard. He's not sure whether to come or drop off because he's always been left with two people to mark.

[martmitch]

either arsenal are starting to lose it or our boys are starting to believe!

arsenal keeper is a true liability, we need to expose this like they are exposing hoiletts lack of defensive cover

[Elegia]

too easy again, the positive to take from that goal is that nobody tracked Arteta. So they won't be so out of breath and can run around a bit more.

[RibbleValleyRover]

And we pay the price for that Givet/Hoilett weakness.

2-1 Arsenal.

[rogerjonesgloves]

best hope is a flood

[Dan]

I really hate that cheating little illegitimate Arsetita
